BEIJING - Combined trade volume of major wholesale markets in China increased 6.7 percent year on year to 9.9 trillion yuan ($1.6 trillion) in 2013, new data has showed.
The number of the markets, however, dropped to 5,089, Zhang Zhigang, president of the China General Chamber of Commerce, said on Friday during a press conference for the third China Marketing Forum.
The calculation was collected from markets with total volume more than 100 million yuan a year.
